Robert, Instead of :"C:\Path\to\Office\msaccess.exe \\server\path\to\database" Try: "C:\Path\to\Office\msaccess.exe" \\server\path\to\database In the application location. Cheers, Matthew. Robert Walk <rwalk@xxxxxxxxx om> To Sent by: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx thin-bounce@free cc lists.org Subject [THIN] Published App question 13/11/2002 15:06 Please respond to thin@xxxxxxxxxxx rg Good Day, I am publishing Microsoft Access as an application but I also want it to open right into a specific database without user intervention. I have tried to use the UNC path to the database in the application command line like this: "C:\Path\to\Office\msaccess.exe \\server\path\to\database" but I get an error message that the application "failed to start" when trying to use the app. Is there a way to do this through a published application? I know it works directly from the cmd command line.
